Verne, the company behind the Rimac robotaxi project, says it is ready to return all funding it received from European funds if an evaluation finds that it failed to fulfill its contractual obligations.
The company will submit a report within one month. The responsible authorities will then assess whether all requirements have been met. The project received €90 million from a European fund through Croatia’s National Recovery and Resilience Plan.
The report and subsequent evaluation will determine whether the project can retain the funding. The headline raises the possibility that the robotaxi project could continue with private money if the European funds must be returned.
